Today's the day. Is this a bold new step towards a glorious Independent Republic of Alberta? Or will we defeat Paul Martin on January 23rd only to see him resurface in Mordor more powerful than before thanks to interference from the fallen Dinninguman The White? Or will I have my literary licence revoked for referring to both Lord of the Rings and Terminator in the same post?

I've got my $5 in handy, and my Wendy's 2-for-1 Big Bacon Classic coupon firmly in hand. I shall use both this afternoon, to celebrate the Morton appearance on the second ballot with a healthy feeding of Alberta Beef (and some Manitoba Pork for kicks). I strongly encourage anybody else who loves Alberta enough to refuse to let it be toyed with by Ottawashed liberals of any party affiliation. Just to mess with the universe, I'll quote another geek franchise:

I will not sacrifice the Enterprise. We've made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They devalue our oil and we fall back. They accomodate sexual deviants and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far and no further! And I will make them pay for what they've done!
